i posted the beginning of this previously and identified it as an unknown saved document found in 'my document' file. i have no idea of its origin but it all adds up as quite accurate from what we see daily should we care to look and has great importance for our daily existence;




Politicians influence arrests and prosecutions of friends, relatives and of course their campaign contributors.  Illegal influence is used to both free the guilty and jail the innocent.  Cops and prosecutors look the other way.  Whistle blowing in law enforcement circles doesn’t exist.

If you’re accused of doing something horrible, it doesn’t remove your rights. That’s when such rights are most important. When government can make the decision to kill you without the ability to stand trial or face their accusers, its called tyranny. There will be some who say “Who cares? These guys are terrorists?”, but who decides if you’re a criminal or terrorist?

No-knock raids help those in power control you.  No-knock raids are less about officer safety or preventing evidence from being lost and more about making sure that “consumers” are too scared to resist the Police State. Our government loves to use force and tells us it’s for our own good. The numbers of police officers that are actually concerned about the well being of the general public are declining because they’re being trained to see everyone they come into contact with as a threat rather than a neighbor.

Constitutional protections, including the ban against unreasonable searches and seizures, are ignored with the now ever-present use of “no-knock” warrants. SWAT teams are now routinely used for regular police work, including serving warrants for nonviolent offenses. Raids by SWAT teams, typically carried out in the dead of night, often involve the use of military stun grenades, the wanton destruction of property, killing household pets, and increasingly, the deaths of “suspects” and their family members, including children. More than one hundred such raids take place in America every day.

The militarization of domestic policing is one symptom of a deeply dysfunctional society. While the political establishment never loses the opportunity to declare there’s no money for social needs; education, pensions, health care, nutrition. Billions of dollars are made available to ensure the police have the latest tools of violence.

America looks like a garrison state. The border of the country has been turned into de facto military zones, where constitutional rights don’t exist. Military drones have already appeared in American skies, and plans are in place for their wider use. There’s a determined effort to get you used to police and soldiers armed to the teeth, at airports, train stations, schools, sports stadiums, etc.

Militarized police are part of a massive state apparatus that operates largely outside of any legal or democratic supervision and tramples on the population’s constitutional and democratic rights every day. Domestic policing is increasingly integrated with the NSA spying programs that monitor your movements, communications and intimate personal details. I know you tell yourself about how vanilla you are obeying all laws, of which you are aware, but perhaps you’ve noticed your rulers make mistakes.

The militarization of American society was graphically exposed in the lockdown of Boston after the Marathon bombings, in which the city’s residents were told to “shelter in place” as squads of police in combat fatigues, armed with assault rifles, conducted house-to-house searches.

Americans don’t live in the real world and one day could wake up stunned by reality. If a little boy points his finger and sys “Bang!” he is handcuffed by the police and dragged from school, to be subjected to psychiatry. This in the planet’s most militarily aggressive country, in which said little boy is constantly exposed to war movies and murderous video games. Dodge ball is violence, but join the Marines and be a man.

Government protects us from people who might spy on us, by spying on us. They protect us from violent thugs with cops that perform no-knock SWAT raids on peaceful people. They protect us from thieves and financial collapse by stealing from us to give to the thieves. Now they’ve declared war on Americans to protect us from those who might declare war on us. It’s time to realize that government is the big terrorist.

Law enforcement is a “product” we’re forced to buy, and severely punished through torture, or even by death if we refuse. Since law enforcement operates as a monopoly, rather than through the market, there’s no legitimate mechanism to guide rational distribution of resources, and no way to measure “customer” satisfaction although using the term “customer” in this context is a bit like using the term “girlfriend” to describe a rape victim.

The Nazis valued police competence, so in 1933, almost all of the men who served in the various state police forces under the Weimar Republic stayed on in their jobs. In one of the few places in Germany where most of the Gestapo records survived, every member of the Gestapo was a career policeman or had a police background. Most Gestapo men were not Nazis, but at the same time weren’t opposed to the Nazi regime, which they were willing to serve, in whatever task they were called upon to perform: 80% of all Gestapo investigations were started in response to information provided by denunciations by ordinary Germans.

Prosecutors are rewarded for winning at all costs. They have no incentive to search for truth rather than a conviction, and they’re entirely unaccountable when they pervert justice in pursuit of victory. Don’t believe that your innocence is any protection. The question isn't whether you’ve done anything wrong, but whether the criminal justice system is going to target you and once you’re in that system, you face excessive odds of emerging from it without damage.

Both judges and prosecutors enjoy absolute immunity for their official conduct. They’re not personally liable for their official misconduct, which means that they have no flesh over the fire. Judges, especially those elected to their positions, are almost universally reluctant to force prosecutors to carry out their duty under the Supreme Court’s ruling by providing relevant evidence to the defense. 

When our own government no longer sees us as human beings with dignity and worth but as things to be manipulated, maneuvered, mined for data, manhandled by police, conned into believing it has our best interests at heart, mistreated, and then jails us if we dare step out of line, punishes us unjustly without remorse, and refuses to own up to its failings, we’re no longer operating under a constitutional republic. What we/re experiencing is a tyranny at the hands of a psychopathic government, which operates against the interests of its own people except for favoring certain groups.

Having allowed government to expand and exceed our reach, we find ourselves on the losing end of a tug-of-war over control of our country and our lives. As long as we let them, government officials will continue to trample on our rights, always justifying their actions as being for the good of the people. Yet government can only go as far as “we the people” allow. The problem is that we’ve suspended our consciences in favor of the police state.

The choice before us is that of being a child or a parent, of obeying blindly, never questioning the police state or challenging injustice, standing up to tyranny, and owning up to our responsibilities as citizens, no matter how painful, risky or uncomfortable.

Who can expect people to obey laws that the police refuse to, and when that refusal reaches felony behavior that would land anyone else in jail for decades there should be no surprise when those with few scruples, if any, take advantage of the example they’re set by “law enforcement” to create some mayhem of their own. Cops don’t get magical new powers because they have a blue suit on.  They’re only empowered to act and use force when a law is being violated. Some believe that nobody is entitled to resist police felonies and must put up with them, whether the crime involved is theft, felony assault or even murder.

Always remember, cops worship the State. There’s nothing they won’t do at its command. 9/11 is one of their favorite excuses. They will trample all over the original intent of the constitution if the State tells them that it’s okay. They will lie. They will twist facts. They will put innocent citizens in jail, rather than lose face for their own misdeeds. They will see nothing, hear nothing, and speak nothing, to protect their kind from the very laws they have sworn to uphold. They would rather kill you on a mistake and lie about it with the mindset that their number one priority is to go home safe a night, even if that means an unjustified killing, then claim that their life and safety required a split second guess and they were in fear for their lives, from everyday items.

We no longer speak of peace officers or police departments. They’ve come to be known as law enforcement officers and police forces, by their own preference and usage. Given their tactics, equipment and behavior, the police closely resemble the standing army we’ve rightly feared. Notice they call us “civilians”. Police chose this path because, it creates a clear cut “us and them” relationship with “consumers”, most visible in their routinely botched and often fatal “no knock” home invasions.

The excuses are rarely convincing, as in all things, you are what you do, not what you say. That sort of conduct by armed agents of the State is characteristic of war zones where no rights are recognized, where the preponderance of force is the one and only standard of ownership, where “you’re either one of us or the enemy”. The law-abiding citizen also notices SWAT teams weren’t deployed to take out the looters torching downtown businesses. Yet they’ll do bomb-throwing midnight raids, guns blazing, often for what was once routine process-serving, even when toddlers and other innocents are known to be in the house.
Officers need the citizens; it’s not the other way around, and you can’t get what you want through demands, but only through voluntary cooperation.

Consider North Korea, where the citizens wouldn’t dare to think about organizing protests and demonstrations against governmental policy. They’re considered by the authorities to be model citizens; deferential, orderly, obedient, and loyal, never questioning or challenging in a public way what the authorities are doing.

That’s the mindset of the cops in America. They want people to behave like people do in the military or in North Korea; Deferential, obedient, submissive, and loyal. That’s why cops bark out orders to people as if the cops were drill sergeants. They expect people to obey them, just like privates do in the military.

An unarmed black man is killed by police and automatically, Americans assume, he must have done something to deserve being killed. 130 years after Twain’s masterpiece, Americans still live in a dream world. The media pounce on factoids, did marijuana in Michael Brown’s system cause him to behave erratically? I don’t know, does it make Willie Nelson act erratically?
If you’re poor in America, you don’t stand a chance, if you’re poor and black that goes double. It’s not Black on Black crime; it’s poor on poor crime. No one called the St. Valentine’s Day massacre, Italian on Irish crime. It isn’t racially motivated; it’s economically and geographically motivated crime. It’s seizing whatever opportunity is viable, to rise above poverty in a society precluding legitimate social improvement.


A decade ago we were debating whether non-citizens like “enemy combatants” being held at Guantanamo Bay and Muslim-Americans rounded up in the wake of 9/11, were entitled to protections under the Constitution as they relate to indefinite detention. Americans weren’t overly concerned about the rights of non-citizens then, and now we’re the ones in the unenviable position of being targeted for indefinite detention by “our government”.

A sizeable portion of “consumers” aren’t concerned about government spying on Americans, having been brainwashed into believing that if you’re not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about. It will only be a matter of time before they learn the hard way that in a police state, it doesn’t matter who you are or how righteous you claim to be, eventually, you’ll be lumped in with everyone else and everything you do will be “wrong” and suspect.

Anyone who has been paying attention is aware that we have a growing domestic terrorism problem here in America and I mean our militarized police departments. The FBI defines domestic terrorism: “Domestic terrorism” means activities with the following three characteristics: Involve acts dangerous to human life that violate federal or state law; Appear intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; Occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of America.

Indeed, police officers kill more Americans every year than terrorists do. We’re eight times more likely to be killed by a cop than by a “terrorist.” Americans are being terrorized by those who were supposed to protect us from terrorism.


Police like to pretend that their job is to “protect and serve.” It isn’t. Their job is to forcibly control the rest of us in whatever way politicians tell them to. Politicians make up commands; call them laws, and their hired guns, “law enforcers”, hurt any who disobey. Police know this, which is why you will often hear them say things like, “I don’t make the law, I only enforce it,” with the implication being that they aren’t to blame, because they’re just following orders and doing as they’re told.

That excuse was invalid when the Nazis used it, and it’s invalid today. It’s also completely cowardly to deny responsibility for your actions, just because someone else told you to do something. How do you suppose the police would respond to some common thief saying,” don’t blame me for mugging this old lady; someone else told me to”? They would respond exactly how we should respond to it when they use the excuse: You’re responsible for what you do.

The over-funded police in America tend to be a lethal clown posse. The American police state has been a savage enterprise enforcing unpopular or simply bad laws for decades. One determined man gunning for the cops can paralyze an entire state’s law enforcement apparatus and have them running for cover. With few exceptions, even the vaunted thousands of SWAT teams, American police do not encounter talented armed resistance to their predations. For every Dorner incident, there are thousands of Americans savaged and mauled by the cops who offer no resistance whatsoever. Some of these unfortunates go to the hospital for non-crimes like obstructing and resisting arrest. The present vector of violence by the police state will increase and they will start pushing the wrong folks the wrong way. More Americans don’t feel consoled by the presence of police but frightened and concerned for their well-being.
